Azul,

Effective November 30, 2024 at noon Talossan time, I hereby resign my long held position of Secretary of State. Should I ascend to the throne prior to that date, my resignation will take immediate effect.

Serving as the Secretary of State is a burden and yet it is also a joy. I've loved (almost) every moment since I left the Uppermost Cort four years ago. With my impending accession to the Throne, and with the month of recess called, now is the perfect time to allow the government to appoint a successor and to give that successor time to acclimate to the role.

Sir Txec dal Nordselva
Heir Presumptive
Secretary of State

Sir Luc da Schir, Deputy Secretary of State, will be administering the 4th Clark of the 60th Cosa. As Secretary of State, I will be monitoring for any issues that may arise but as I am now the Heir Presumptive I am taking a less active role in the Chancery in preparation for Accession.

Should anything change, I will make the appropriate announcement.




Secretár d'Estat/Secretary of State

The Chancery hereby appoints Ian Plätschisch as Deputy Secretary of State. His duties shall be to act as the Deputy Administrator of Wittenberg.




Secretár d'Estat/Secretary of State

Feliciǎ Nadaliçă King John. May this day bring you many happy returns!

I wonder if it would be possible for someone who is more fluent in Talossan to engage in a few simple conversations with someone (me!) who is not at all proficient, as a way to help me start to use the language. We can do this via Discord or PM if convenient, but if I'm going to be the king in the near future, I'd like to know more of our language.

Thanks

Azul,

It is time, in my opinion as the Squirrel Viceroy of Arms, that we should recognize one of our own with an elevation in rank. @Carlüs Éovart Vilaçafat has served for quite some time as The Fulbright Fellow. I hope the Dean and others in the Coletx will agree with me that is is time to promote Carlus to the rank of Pursuivant. With that, Carlus, a Pursuivant is able to choose his title. Ordinarily it is based on a geographical location. So for example, I was The Kingsbridge Pursuivant (and I always signed my posts as -Kingsbridge). I chose my title based on a fictional location, but one that had great meaning to me. Please take some time and think about what title you would like and let's have a discussion!

I'd love to include your promotion in my upcoming Accession Honours so you have a little time on this. Congrats!

It is with great pleasure that I appoint as Deputy Secretary of State, Sir Lüc da Schir. Sir Lüc will be an invaluable addition to the Chancery and I thank him for his agreeing to serve in this vital role.



Secretár d'Estat/Secretary of State

Allow me to express my deepest condolences to longtime citizen Baron Hooligan, Count Thord, on the loss of his son Jameson. Hool, you are in my prayers and thoughts. I truly cannot imagine what you are going through, but I grieve with you.
